Hervey Bay

Hervey Bay is a small city in south eastern Queensland and is located approximately 3.5 hours drive north of Brisbane

It is a short distance from Fraser Island, which is the world's largest sand island, and Lady Elliot Island, a pristine resort island on the Great Barrier Reef.

The local economy relies mainly on tourism, which includes whale watching from mid July until early November.
